But don’t DARE call me a homophobe!”

This sad part is these people are so f*ing ignorant they probably don’t even realize the incongruous irony of their statements.

Unless you’re white, on the dole, live on an estate and have a pregnant 17 year old girlfriend you’re doomed. Anything other than this is viewed as ”different” which equals “wrong”.

If this Andrew Watson is selected then it is yet more evidence of how ‘Call Me Dave’ Cameron’s ‘commitment’ to equality is a barefaced lie.

I think they are homophobic, but are embarrassed when they realise that bad publicity might hurt their business. If they don’t want to be embarrassed or their business interests to be hurt, then the solution is remarkably simple…don’t behave like a homophobic bigot.

Can I also ask readers of Pink News to pop over to Manx Forums and have a look at the homophobic comments on the Civil Partnership Bill thread? This is the reality of homophobia.

This person does not feel comfortable if gay people are around his daughter.

David Cameron said in his Attitude interview that he would not enter an alliance with people whose views he found ‘unacceptable’.
Therefore if this Watson individual is selected as candidate then Cameron must find his homophobia ‘acceptable’.

Then again ‘Call Me Dave’ is a professional liar – he used to work in PR.

That said Mr Watson is right about 1 thing – nasty little man he may be but he is correct when he says that the UUP are not as hateful and vile as Iris Robinson’s DUP party.

The DUP can be compared to the BNP; while the UUP can be compared to UKIP.
